1. Pascal Siakam
The Golden State Warriors are actively seeking ways to keep their championship window open. They are on the lookout for another All-Star to add to the mix, and Pascal Siakam may be the best option currently available on the trade market.
The Warriors are one of the teams, along with the Sacramento Kings, that have been linked to the Toronto Raptors about Siakam. It makes sense to make a package including Andrew Wiggins and some draft assets to land Siakam in the Bay Area.
Siakam fits the Warriors mold as a two-way player that can fill multiple spots on the court. He is further along in his development and presents enough of an upgrade over Wiggins, which is why the draft assets, whether it be James Wiseman, Jonathan Kuminga, or Moses Moody, are included.
Siakam is a versatile defender who can defend every spot in the frontcourt. He is athletic enough to stick with players on the perimeter but strong enough to bang on the interior as well. He is also a strong rebounder.

The improvements he has made offensively will play well alongside Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. He presents an excellent third option offensively and if his 3-point shooting gets back on track he is that much more dangerous offensively.
He would be an excellent fit in the Warriors’ rotation as they look to upgrade the group around their aging core of Curry, Thompson and Green.
